Willie, Is my go to inspector.  I don’t always love 100% everything in his report however, I know that he’ll not only tell my buyers what’s wrong with the asset but more importantly, what’s right with it.  Typically he’ll say this isn’t a bad deal but this needs a second opinion or a closer look by a specialist.  He has years of experience and a solid approach. When my client and I is looking for a solid inspector that knows his stuff, Willie should be your first call.

“Willie’s extensive background as a real estate inspector and his passion for property provides his clients a framework for success. His knowledge, timeliness, attention to detail, and desire to establish rapport to mitigate risk is uncommon for an inspector. Willie seeks relationships that help investors grow their portfolios as well as give comfort to primary home purchasers. I have worked with Willie on several projects and “highly” recommend him.”

“I couldn’t recommend Will more highly. He worked for me directly and daily for five years and inspected over 500 properties for our credit team. Will is exceptional strong in technical expertise; particularly renovation and construction. He is detail oriented, customer focused and cares very deeply about his performance and representing his organization. He balances his technical skills with superb interpersonal skills. Any company would be lucky to have him on their team. Please reach out to me if I can be helpful in discussing Willie’s qualifications further.

I have known Mr. Willie for almost 8 years and since then, most of Property Inspection will be conducted by him. He is very dependable, honest, knowledgeable and friendly. He makes sure, he will get the Inspection done, even in his tight schedule and always there to answer any questions the clients have. For first time home buyers, he thoroughly explains each and every details at the time of Inspection. I strongly recommend him.

“As a professional and full time real estate broker, I have to be very particular on who I recommend to conduct a home inspection ranging from a SFH, condo or multi-unit property. Willie has seen it all in his vast background of experience. He’s very professional with all the latest tools and will always be on time for his appointments. He tells it like it is and in a way the home buyer can understand and be encouraged to pursue their prospective home purchase.
I would definitely recommend Willie to other Realtors and their clients.”

By the way, I live in TX, but I’m able to invest remotely with confidence because of Willie’s partnership. Again, work with Willie… you’ll be happy that you did.”

A Managing Broker Review

Category : Uncategorized

Willie is a very detailed, thorough, knowledgeable, and experienced commercial real estate inspector. He is always punctual, kind, positive, explains his findings in detail, and points out overlooked issues that can soon turn into major problems. His reports are very detailed, comprehensive and include a lot of photos, valuable suggestions, and estimates for repairs. He’s been in the business for a few decades and has a lot of experience as a city inspector, construction specialist, housing inspector, and commercial inspector.

 
I’ve learned so much from my interactions with Willie. At our last inspection, he was able to discover an issue with a property that was unknown to the seller and saved my client over $25,000 in repairs.
I’ve been in the business for over 15 years, sold over 700 properties in Chicagoland area and haven’t met another inspector that is as knowledgeable and experienced as Willie. If you are a real estate broker or an investor, you definitely want to have Wille as part of your valuable team.  He brings a lot of value and can save you/your clients a lot of money and major headaches. Highly recommended!
